After winning a battle with testicular cancer last year we finally got our first born son. <3
*pro-tip*
Real men take care of their baby while mommy takes as many naps as she needs. She's been through an ordeal! Suck it up guys and be her dream husband!
DrAnusMcFinger
That kid is cute as hell

I'm not above being preached to by a shirtless person but this just aint it. Honestly, on about 4 levels I don't know why u would post this.

"Real Men..." is always a real fat dude way of starting a sentence. But congrats on the sex trophy!
sparrowandmanna
Your wife may kill you but as a woman who just delivered a baby 2 days ago, I agree! Good job
shawberry
Congrats!

Real men let me inside them. Are you not a real man, Rick?

That is awesome!!!!

Look at those rosy cheeks!

It's also good to have your baby sleep on your chest. The baby has heard your heartbeat for nine months. Time to get used to yours

i ate ice cream while i did this.

Np problem kinda feel like a dick now hahaha but yea hes a dead beat i have a little girl and am a single dad so i fo everything
CastMeAwayPlease
Not all dads see themselves as caregivers and more like baby sitters when needed. My dad is a dead beat. Its nice to see a good dad.

Thats some next level white knighthood right there.

I bet she kicks him right in the nut...
SamanthaBradshaw
In all honesty she will be too tired over the next year to care! Next year though Mate, watch your other ball :) Congratulations you both.
ImgurianSlacker
I have 2 kids....I have slept like shit for the last 5 years
justbrett
I'm in the same boat! Testicular cancer survivor here AND we just had our first child last month. Pretty neat huh?
Rackshasa
Congrats bud! :)
tomhark
i came back , this is beautiful, baby's ear is right on your heart. you are doing it so right.
livelaughbrie
I could cry. This is the most romantic thing a dad can do. I refuse to have more kids because I know I'll be doing it on my own again.

1) Adorable kid so congratulations 2) What kind of weird humblebrag point whoring title is this shit @op?
MeinKamfyChair
I'll take my vasectomy instead. Turns out I like having sex more than having children.
SageGirl
Too many dudes skimp out on this stuff. I think it's something more dudes should be saying. Along with pushing for more paternity leave.
irishnovember
agreed on paternity leave btw but that's well organised in holland.
nagellak
Nooo its not. Men only get three days here. Three days!!!
irishnovember
ja dat is wettelijk minimum maar bijvoorbeeld waar ik werk krijg je er nog 2 weken bij. Het is niet perfect maar beter dan veel landen.
nagellak
2 wk vind ik nog steeds best weinig voor een nieuw mensje in je leven!
irishnovember
Litterally every male friend I have who has a kid is a great parent and loves their kids. Who are these dudes you and op are talking about?
SageGirl
Yeah, most dudes love their kids. But do they plan everything, take their kids to appointments without asking, plan play dates, 1/
SageGirl
2/make 50% of the meals, do 50% of the laundry, pull mom aside, tell her to take a break and take the kids out for the day? 3-
SageGirl
3/ My brother loves his kid but he's fucking terrible at managing her life or the household.
collaredzeus
Fuck you you self righteous cunt. You aren't the gate keeper for real men,
SirBrendan
Holy fuck, take a breath. It was a mildly distasteful sharing of his pride and promotion of family values. It's going to be okay
collaredzeus
If he was a real man he wouldn't feel the need to broadcast his doing the bare minimum as a father all over the Internet.
yuyufan43
@op, seeing parents work together (something I never got to experience from my own) makes me hopeful for your sweet baby. Thank you

You don't have to be a real man to take care of your kids. It's simply being a man.
rgzdev
He means "real man" as in "the kind of man women want". Just good old hetero-normative reinforcing at work really. The more things change...
Evenlymade
Don't over think it
rgzdev
Oh but it's true. Except I'm not judging. I'm not a feminist. I understand that a little social pressure keeps society working.
sunnivarina
it's simply being a DAD. but it's not normal to let your wife relax with enough sleep after birth. i think you are a man, aren't you?
benpoon
Bears eat their cubs.
Ovaender
A human being can potentially adopt any kind of behaviour. I don't think there is somenthing wrong in praising the decent ones :)
Regdabmaof
A decent man.
Regdabmaof
Maybe even a good man.

FredaFelcher
That's what dads do. Support your wife, and take care of kids. Mom and Dad are a team. It definitely feels special, but it's expected.
ilPino
Everything is awsome! My 2 premature newborns are currently on ICU. I'm so fucking on this train.
FredaFelcher
Congratulations! Best of luck and a speedy recovery to your little ones!

My favorite Chris Rock quote. "You brag about taking care of your kids? You want a fucking cookie?! That's what you supposed to do!!"

Ya low expectation having motherfucker!

It's ok to celebrate doing what you're supposed to, standard isn't not awesome or hard. It just doesn't make you better than others.

If my husband took care of our newborn while I napped he could post whatever pictures he wants of me.

That baby would be a total asshole she did that.
TrijezniMujo
Why? She looks so cute in the pic
thirdworldrepresent
It's okay @OP, it's not like its revenge porn or something. Besides that, she looks good in that photo
mrsdmilburn
I WISH my husband were as good behind the camera as I am when I take pics of my girls or with him and them. I feel like later on they'll ask
mrsdmilburn
Why I wasn't in any, and it'll be because I was taking them all.
googleboots
A roomful of people just saw her vagina and most likely watched her accidentally poop herself while giving birth to that baby. She's good
mrmessma
I think the whole popping during child birth is common but still in the minority.
SometimesILeaveTheHouse
And Popping during childbirth is probably even less common than pooping.

Agreed 100%. I have like one picture of me sleeping by baby& it was staged. It happened constantly; those are the memories you want recorded
TheTurtleStoleMyFuckingPoptart
Yep, I'm always on the other side of the camera. My baby has many pics with daddy and none with me.
Boopbeepbeep
My boy is 13. Pictures of us together are in the tens. Hundreds of him and his father. Fix it before you realize how much time has passed.
acme64
Just make a better looking kid and start over

get enough of my wife with my son when he was still little, making up for it now he's 2 but yeah
LadyBlackbeardAndThePussyParrot
I still find these of me & the baby passed out as a happy surprise on my phone when dad leaves for work...3 years and counting lol
KatalinaWineMixer
As a girl I would love it if my boyfriend took more candid pics of me.
Darkaiku
I have two, maybe three pictures of me with my daughter. Definitely not enough. So yes, get all the pictures you can.

As a mom yes! Just don't post it online without clearing it with me first lol
Nerdygasm
Before having my daughter and losing 80 lbs. http://imgur.com/YTd98W9 Still don't care how crappy we looked. Just how happy we both were.

The whole "real x" shit is infuriating.
TheLordTachanka
It's a form of propaganda. "You're not a real man if you don't enlist in the war!" Pretty bullshit.
flamingflamingo
Real woman, real liberal, real beehive, all bullshit.

Or brag about normal things that's expected of anyone that isn't a total piece of shit.

whitewater0034
The "real men" part turned this post from ok to downvote. I don't know any men who don't idolise their children.
flamingflamingo
My dad is one too. I haven't watched Interstellar because I'm afraid I'll be heartbroken by a display of how much a dad should love his kid.
Solivoid
I love how everyone who replied to you, tried as hard as possible to prove you absolutely wrong.
Ovaender
My father didn't care about us (or my mother). Is it so hard to remember that there are a lot of jerks in the world?
PsychoDK
As hard as it is to remember there are more good guys in the world, apparently.
Ovaender
I'm sure you know them all, maybe you consider yourself one of them, right?
FFSwherearemydragons
My father for one... we're just acquaintances for him because he wanted boys and he got 4 girls... In my opinion, I didn't..
FFSwherearemydragons
mind the "real men". I liked that post because it reminded me that not all men are shitty fathers (I need constant reminders)
FajitaPrinceofAllMexicans
@OP is a piece of shit, look at his comments on his post.
flamingflamingo
Haha respect for calling out OP directly.
FajitaPrinceofAllMexicans
Nah, no respect for me. The worst the child can do is reply to me like he did. It doesn't take much guts to call him out.
flamingflamingo
Sure, but I can respect someone who's not afraid of some direct internet confrontation instead of just leaving some vague comment.
